Getting off track and regaining weight is so frustrating and discouraging!

This is why I created a tool to help people get back on track. It's called RESET: Getting back on track after bariatric surgery.

It's an online course where you watch the videos at your own pace. It can be found at https://resetbariatric.com

Who am I and why should you trust me?
I'm Katy Harvey, a dietitian, and I specialize in bariatric surgery and the psychology of eating. I'm also an expert in binge eating disorder and emotional overeating. I've helped hundreds of people find peace with food and their body.

Let me know if you have any questions!

In 2010 I had the Lap band surgery. I was 298 and got down to 212 and then boom. I stopped. I was actually happy with myself, and didnt find it a concern. Now...I started having issues with the band. Heartburn, chest pains, and ultimately decided to have it removed. So next week on the 16th I am having the band removed and on November 13th I am going to undergo the sleeve surgery. I'm so unmotivated though right now. I have gotten myself two brand new bags of Bariatric Advantage Protein and am trying to stick with two shakes and one good meal. But I am stuck home due to a recent spinal surgery and its so darn hard to not graze all day. SMH I ordered a few books about the sleeve and bariatric journey so hope that will kick my motivational butt in gear. Any suggestions?

Same problem except I did my surgery( gastric sleeve) 1 year and six months ago went from 292 lbs to 220 and i stopped, i put on another 13 lbs. I decided to do a pouch reset instead of another surgery, its a 10 day plan going to start tomorrow and i hope it really makes a difference. Good luck hope it goes well for you.

Good luck! I'm sure it will help. They took all the Fluid out of my band so it gave me free reign to eat whatever again and oh boy that was a mistake. I hope your reset works! You can do it.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
